Hi All!
New builder here in WA state. I haven't placed the order for my kit yet, but just purchased my donor this afternoon so thought I would start my build log. It's a 2007 LS automatic (I've got plans to add a supercharger or turbo kit to it eventually) with 130k miles on it. Found the car via Craigslist and kinda just lucked into it as the seller wasn't getting much attention and just wanted to get rid of it. The car is dirty, has a bunch of rust on it the body, but the engine runs well, and the important parts all look good from the outside. I'll be starting the tear down soon and then will get the kit order placed in a few or so.
I've got some more pictures here on my Instagram: http://instagr.am/p/B7y6CsDlUh7/
Have to give a special shout out to Gearhead Passion, a local non-profit that is helping me with the build process. The mission is to ignite the passion of cars in everyone. So this project fits right in with their mission and they'll be helping with some of the tools that I don't have (like an engine hoist) or an extra pair of hands to help push something into place.
